Meerdere projecten tegelijkertijd heb ik u draaien. Buiten het schilderen van 5 Deathwing squads, ben ik ook bezig met de lightning en de titan. Ik probeer de Deathwing voor 13 December af te krijgen, en de titan moet 22 November klaar zijn. Druk druk druk. dus. Tevens ben ik begonnen met een nieuwe scratch build. Ik probeer een thunderhawk te bouwen. Ik heb via www.kunstofshop.nl voldoende Polystyreen (plastic card) gekocht om het model 3 maal te bouwen. Ik ben nu alle onderdelen aan het uitknippen om de hoofdcabine te maken. Foto’s komen vanzelf op de site.

Lightning Exhaust

In my last post i mentioned making round engines. That failed. I have made square ones instead.

I have altered the lightning a little, and i have added 2 exhausts. The picture are very bad quality. The exhaust i have added are made from ” lasdoppen” i do not know the English term for it, but the components are normally used to connect electrical wires. They needed a little work to fit but they look pretty good. I also added an autocannon. I think i will start painting it soon.

Lightning II project

I have continued the lightning project. I have constructed the Fuselage (from rather thick cardboard (5 mm) and already i have attached the wings. The wings are details with 1 mm thick cardboard peaces to look like an eagle.

If you look at the slide show you can see i added a canopy and an air intake. Unfortunately the air-intake does not fit very well. I will try to fix this later on with a filler of some sort. The fighter is rather small also in comparison with the Valkyrie i bought recently. I am currently working on the engines, but this proves rather difficult. It needs to be round, thats not easy with cardboard. At the moment i am using a steel pipe to press the model in shape!

Lightning

These are the first steps for building my own lightning fighter for future Apocalypse games. I downloaded the plans from the zealot website. I also found an active thread on the forum of someone also building the same model. I hope to learn from his examples. I will be placing new posts as i make some progress. The first step is glueing the printouts from the plans to cardboard.
